《The memory of the abyss》Chapter 1.5: Drake memories

I remember her. She stands out from the rest, positive, friendly, and most of all resource full.
The mother (the head of the orphanage) cherish her very much like she is her daughter. This making other children jealous of her. But she reaches out to them, talking to them, playing with them, helping the one who needs it, and so much more stuff she has done for the orphanage. Making her loved by all, even Stella who doesn’t talk much will talk to her. To me, she is like a big sister that always brings trouble where ever she goes. Me, Stella and her usually together, one group of misfits. She is known for her curiosity, she always asking people around the town how things work .she asks the merchant about how things outside the city, she asked the farmer about how to grow plants, she even goes to the town hall and asking weird stuff that I didn’t know about. Always asking the question, always trying new stuff, and always getting into trouble. But, it was very fun when we are with her.
One day when she turns 15 she requested the Merchant to take her to travel around the world. She left me and Stella behind. At that time we, me and Stella were 13 years old, and to become an adult we need to be 18 years old. Stella cries trying to stop her, but she won't change her mind. I couldn’t say a word to stop her. So before so left the orphanage she makes a promise
" when both of you turn adult I will send a message to the orphanage about me and invite you two to my place, until then take care of Stella for me, OK big guy? And Stella stop being a cry baby when we meet up OK!"

and she left us while riding behind the Merchant Caravan vehicle and that's the last time we saw her. And that is the last time we saw her smile.
We were devastated. Losing our big sister, not seeing her for a long time it's taking a toll on the surroundings, at that time Stella didn’t talk to anybody she becomes very gloomy all the time. I was trying to fill the gap that she makes for Stella, it was slow progress and it is working but Stella only talks to me and mother. We miss her. She who drags us into trouble, she who helps others when needed, and she who a big sister to us.
Days went by and we turn 18. There are none. There is no news about her and people start to forget about her. People said that she didn’t succeed in her life, that she has forgotten about us. Is a cruel world outside where monster and undead roaming outside city gates, and even some people said that she didn’t make it. But her promise I still remember it. And I believe in her. That she will come back for us, at least for me and Stella. Stella still talks about her every night before we fall asleep. We want to see her. We want to talk to her. I want to see her smile.
One day a letter came to our orphanage.
“To Drake and Stella, from Elura”

Artifice: Iysinfyr
Nalulthyn is the young daughter of a duke that is one day asked for a favor. This favor involves the adopted daughter of the duke from a neighboring area. This girl has had a traumatic past and has closed herself off from the world completely and reacts violently when touched by anyone but her personal maid. The duke hopes that a girl close to the age of his adoptive daughter will be what she needs to recover, but things are never as easy as they seem. First is that this adopted daughter is a Terran, a rare being from a different world that has skin and hair as white as snow and an almost alien build. Second is that there is a power to this girl, one that makes her recovery all the more dangerous to Nalulthyn and perhaps beyond. Author's note: This is a soft reboot of Artifice: Tools of the Gods. As I wrote the other story years ago I felt it would be better to do this approach as my writing has changed and improved since then. For now only two characters will return though I might reintroduce others later in the story. Even though this has the gore tag, I don't plan on being excessive with it. Most chapters shouldn't have any. The only reason I have it is to be realistic with the descriptions.

Living as a Demon
Jonathan was living the life of a normal human male in modern-day society, until he was rudely awakened one night by a summoning circle that ripped him out of his reality and dumped him into a new world filled with magic, demons, and…mouthy young orphan girls?! Now Jonathan must navigate the trials of playing guardian to a preteen, learning to unlock his inner demon, and somehow managing to find a dang pair of pants! Welcome! I'm E.O. Tenkey; thank you for considering Living as a Demon, my third released work here on Royal Road (following Not a Manga and Mr. Familiar)! Let's set some expectations, shall we? • Not much hard profanity (chapter 1 is the exception!)• Human MC! Our protagonist is a bona fide homo sapiens. Which is not to say there won't be demons, demonic powers, and what-have-you, but this isn't some grimdark exploration of the life and times of a nihilistic, amoral killing machine.• Slice of life. My previous works always ended up there, so might as well get ahead of the curve!• Weekly updates, and a completed story: I will post a single chapter per week on Wednesdays until the story is complete (extra chapters are rare, but do happen).
